Those commits are useless from an informational standpoint and give no
real information at all. We have to build out of dist-git, but the
kernel is not maintained in dist-git, a script prepared dist-git based
on what is in the source tree.  That is why the commit you point to
there is all over the place. https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark
is the source of truth for the Fedora kernel.  In this case an MR came
in and this seems to be unintentional fallout from it.  Reviews on
leds, dacs, thermal, regulators, etc are fairly hard because we really
do not know what hardware is in the wild.  I have reverted the
offending commit in the fedora-6.11 branch, and put in a revert MR for
os-build. In the meantime, I tagged the revert as include in release,
so rawhide should be built correctly again starting tomorrow.
